Trump says the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting has "little" to do with gun laws: "If they had protection inside, the results would have been far better." (via CBS)

(1,376 posts)Is there ever a mass shooting where the GOP "doesn't" blame the victims?
Hell, if the congregation had just closed down the synagogue and NOT exercised their Constitutionally-protected rights of assembly and worship, the results would have been even BETTER! (sarcasm)
Vote Democratic. Your life sure as hell depends on it.

(38,458 posts)So, after today everyone brings a gun to church/temple/or wherever one prays. Pack a gun, on your way to your spiritual meetings.. Wherever and whatever..
So on Christmas day, a day of "peace" all the church goers can compare their hidden guns. Or maybe they can compare their holsters, or rifles that one brings to church. And to show off, some of the practitioners will bring automatics. Why automatics? So when the shooter comes into church and starts shooting, if you have an "automatic" you can get him right away.

(21,840 posts)He's essentially blaming congregants for not being armed? That there isn't a "good guy with a gun" inside??

(183,052 posts)This has little to do with it. If they had protection inside the results would have been far better. This is a dispute that will always exist I suspect. But if they had some kind of protection inside the temple, maybe it could have been a much different situation. But they didnt and he was able to do things that unfortunately he shouldnt have been able to do, Trump said.
